A Guide to Working Effectively with Young Children and Their Families in the Child Welfare System

By Lynne F. Katz, Ed.D., Judge Cindy S. Lederman, & Joy D. Osofsky,
Ph.D., with Candice L. Maze, J.D.

How can early childhood professionals provide the best possible services and supports to families in the child welfare system? This guidebook has the practical, real-world answers professionals need as they navigate the complex system, work with the courts, and plan interventions and treatment for the most vulnerable young children and families.

Developed by a psychologist, a judge, and an expert on early intervention and education, this accessible practitioner’s guide introduces early childhood professionals to the coordinated, evidence-based practices used successfully in Miami’s juvenile court and child welfare community. As they follow a gripping
case study of one young mother and her children, readers will see in vivid detail why effective, integrated services are needed to improve child and family outcomes.
